Thanks for the response. Best of luck.

I am not quite sure Paul. The outages are not everywhere, it seems to be a regional issue with the content distribution network we began using.

I would suggest finding an alternative service anyhow; I am likely going to phase out the service by June and/or convert it to a fee based one. I cannot sustain support for a wide open one. The code is always free to download and install on your own server.

What’s happening with feed2js Alan?

It’s not been working for almost two weeks and I will have to start looking for alternate solutions for my projects if I can’t get any idea when/if it will be working again?

An indication of when/if feed2js will be working again would be hugely appreciated.

Yeah, feed2js.org, it just outs an error message:

“503 Service Temporarily Unavailable
cloudflare-nginx”

My feeds are now just blank. Just assumed it was down for maintenance for the first few days.

I’m not aware of any long term outages of Feed2JS, I do have a monitor that notifies me when the server is not reachable. Are you still not able to access it?

Hi there

I noticed the server is ‘temporarily down’. Does this mean that the service is no longer provided? I used this fantastic feed on a couple of sites and its been no problem so far.

I had just come across this post when searching for possible reasons why it could be down. How’s the search for sponsors going?

Kind regards

Hey,

I (and my organization) may be interested in sponsoring/taking over management of the service. I wanted to email you but didn’t see an email on your site. If you could send me an email (mine is included in my comment profile), we can discuss this.

Thanks!

That would be smart… and beyond my skills ;-)
